The Carrington Hotel is a beautiful old establishment located in the Blue Mountains. While the rooms are charming and spacious, the lack of room service and cold breakfast options were disappointing to some guests. However, the friendly staff and serene atmosphere were highlighted as positives. The hotel's cocktail bar, Champagne Charlie's, received mixed reviews with some guests finding the drinks overpriced and average. Despite this, the hotel itself exudes old-world charm and character, making it a worthwhile destination for those seeking a relaxing and historic stay. The dining options at the hotel were also praised, with the grand dining room and cocktail bar providing a unique and memorable experience. Overall, the Carrington Hotel offers a luxurious and romantic getaway, perfect for those looking for a taste of old-school hospitality in a beautiful setting.
